Adventures in starting a pedal company!

Im in on the barbershop.

Just bought the fullsized one last week and I love it. I plan on putting together a pt nano with the barbershop, accountant, chorus ensemble, caitlanbread hyper pak and whatever else I can dig up.

All 1590 enclosures.

Then, get the SFX B3 to go along with it since you seem to have a love for the Submarines :)
 
It's ALIIIIIIVVEE!! The prototype for the Mini Barbershop is done and working! I realize now, after playing with it, what a crime it is to have made the SAG knob into a trim pot! The sag control makes this incredibly versatile, a word of warning to those of you who have bought one though (a real one, or a mini from me) you will not get "pretty" tone in every knob position, with the sag low it fizzles like an underpowered fuzz, a nice overdrive in the middle, and a pretty heavy fuzz on the other end, and a few decent spots in between, but also a few really bad sounding spots. Fun pedal though, might have to build a full sized one for myself after I get these minis done.

Sound clips to come this weekend.

I'm not taking orders for them. However, I order PCBs in multiples of 3. So I have the parts to do another one. If you'd like, send me a PM and we'll talk about it.

Some news for you guys as well, I just finished up a 3 channel active instrument selector for a local friend (and the guy who designed my website) and it's pretty awesome!

If anyone needs an active channel selector like this (3 in, 1 out) I have the PCBs to do them and want to tryout some 8 bit artwork I've been working on. It will also work as a line buffer and kill switch.

Some more news! I'm going to be cutting back on orders I take. Thankfully, I've expanded beyond TB and have been working on some projects for local guys as well and I've become quite overwhelmed by the number of projects that I'm currently working on. I'm going to be starting a waiting list and if anyone is interested in a custom project at some point, please feel free to let me know!

EY!

this is mine.

and it works great.
having to plug in an electronics rig (mixer with midi/laptop and telephone microphone), a guitar and a bass all through my board... this was a necessity. and now i have it and love having it. so... there's that.
